“Our new identity, Abhinandan Ventures, represents a confident step forward in distinguishing the group’s independent vision and its innovative and transformative approach across sectors,” the company said in a statement.
“Over the years, our group has become synonymous with innovation, and we now would like to capitalize on that equity with a name that truly reflects our identity and evolution. This shift is intended to further reflect the strength and depth of our presence across sectors—from private equity to branded land and differentiated real estate development among others. With all our businesses being new age, tech driven consumer-centric businesses, the new branding allows us to clearly communicate our innovation-first philosophy and ambitious plans for the future,” said Abhinandan Lodha, chairman, Abhinandan Ventures.
